The Pontiac Bonneville was a moniker originally bestowed upon a 1954 Corvette-based GM Motorama concept car. That car never made it to production, but the Pontiac Bonneville was offered to the public in 1957 as the fuel-injected convertible version of the 1957 Pontiac Star Chief. It was equipped with almost every possible option with the exception of air conditioning and the continental kit. For the 1958 model year, the Bonneville became its own model, available in either a convertible or two-door hardtop.
By 1967, the Pontiac Bonneville was in the third year of its fourth generation. This 1967 Pontiac Bonneville wagon has been repainted in an attractive two-tone bright and dark blue color scheme with a silver pinstripe. It rolls on eight-lug wheels wrapped in thin whitewall radial tires. The chrome bumpers appear free from pitting or patina. Stainless trim is well polished. Glass looks to be in fine nick, and weatherstrip is free from deterioration. There is a hood-mounted tachometer and a roof-mounted luggage rack.
Inside the Pontiac Bonneville wagon, the seats are covered in a combination dark blue vinyl and blue cloth. The interior appears to be recent, with no appreciable signs of wear present. The door skins wear dark blue vinyl with accent piping. The front bench seat features a large fold-down center armrest. The cargo area sports a third-row seat that is currently hidden by several boxes of spare parts. The Bonneville is equipped with factory air conditioning, power windows, power steering, power brakes, automatic transmission, and a factory AM radio.
Under the hood of the Pontiac Bonneville resides a 400 cubic-inch V8. The engine compartment is a reasonably tidy affair. As previously mentioned, the 400 is backed by an automatic transmission, but this one is a modern 700R4 with overdrive, allowing for better highway cruising.
Included in the sale of this Pontiac Bonneville wagon is a reproduction window sticker, Protect-O-Plate, and a ton of spare parts.
This unique 1967 Pontiac Bonneville wagon is currently for sale at Streetside Classics for $38,995.

I miss this style station wagon. At car shows, a hot-rodded station wagon always gets me going.
A restomod with a modern fuel efficient drivetrain would be even better.
I think the ’67 Pontiac is one of the best styling ‘refreshes’ of any generation of product design. To me, the ’67 Grand Prix is maybe the best looking of the all GPs that shared the same body with the standard full-size Pontiacs. Not to take anything away from the others, all GPs were the finest looking Pontiacs of their particular model year.
What about the ’63 Grand Prix?
OK, OK. Yes – that was a total standout among all Pontiacs and beyond. It was a trendsetter. Clean and sexy. Minimalistic. Details that stood out from the rest of the Pontiacs; from everybody else. A roofline both sporty and elegant with sharp edges and a concave back window. Taillights stylistically hidden behind horizontal lines of chrome.
The 1963 Pontiacs with their vertical dual headlights already looked stunning, but the Grand Prix took things to a higher level.
My dad always drove station wagons. Most of them could hold a 4×8 sheet of plywood in the back!(
My father was a salesman, and growing up he traded every two years for a new Pontiac. In my opinion, his 1966 Star Chief Executive was a beautiful car. Two door, dark green with green interior. It had the 389 two barrel with limited slip rear end. For the size of this car, it was pretty fast. I was in town one night and a 1965 Pontiac with a 421 was next to me at a stop light, and when it turned green, we took off and I smoked him. As many people say on these comments, “sure wish I had that car today”
But instead I have my older brother’s 1967 Tempest Custom that he bought new in ’67.
Beautiful car, excessive price.
Brings back memories… growing up i remember my parents buying a brand new Catalina station wagon(can’t remember the yr) but i think it was a 1964…very nice car
In summer 1965 my friends and I were driving from Fullerton to Newport Beach for an afternoon of sun and bodysurfing. An eye-catching, new Pontiac station wagon pulled next to us at a stoplight. Eye-catching for a few reasons: a young boy was hanging out of the driver’s window; the badge on the fender wasn’t for a 6.5 liter engine but a 421″ instead; and the guy holding the boy was John Wayne.
Rare car! It needs serious suspension, brakes and steering upgrades to be worth driving. All of these improvements are totally bolt on now.
Crooked chrome fascia on rear driver’s side should reduce the price by about $38,000.
I have a 94 Pontiac Bonneville, I’ve put on a new fuel pump,new filter,and a new fuel pressure regulator. I’ll be in traffic will shut off have to put in neutral to crank, sometimes want will wait 45 to 1hr before crank, I’m stuck!!! What do you think that is???? 😢
